Gas Station Restroom Condoms, Who buys em?

Here on the road I admit that I have 2 frequently use the RR from time 2 time on stops @ gas stations. Who doesn't? Well I pay attention to details in each RR and something that always seems to grab my eye is the opportunity to purchase Off Brand Condoms. Its simple, just add your 75 cents and you're ready to make your mark in the world of sex. Just wondering who actually makes the decision to, fresh of the public toilet, purchase those studded no name condoms?


Well I decided to indulge in my fascination of this somewhat, in my opinion, strange way of purchasing a contraceptive. Unfortunately, I was one quarter short of 75 cents so it required me to go make change of a dollar and I was in business. Of the 5tough choices, I decided upon the Sheer Thin Black Jack Black Studded Condoms. I just couldn't help but to choose these b/c of the long name and great artwork on the cover.

1..2..3 quarters and I was in business. I wonder if the thought process after the purchase is, "I'm gonna get me some and I didn't even spend a dolla" cross their minds. That's another conversation though. I was quite impressed w/what the back of the box read most of all. Turns out that if I send in the box as a mail-in-rebate coupon, I actually get $1 back in the mail. Thats a 133% percent return on my money. So it turns out that its actually an investment to purchase bathroom stall condoms. That's whats up!

Rather its because its cheaper, more discreet, or an investment, I guess Gas Station RR Condoms aren't so bad after all. I'm gonna stick with my Trojan Magnums though. No rolling of the dice there, but they better come up with some rebate coupon soon!

haha, well im sure that the off brand condoms have passed FDA standard tests, so it shows that we mostly pay the 'brand' name price cos we're name hogs, and they in turn charge us for the huge amount of advertising they spend in order that we know their name.

a cycle of take, and take not give and take if you ask me.

then again, the standard condom company is hampered by a small sized budget and obviously cannot have the variations of condoms that come in all shapes sizes and light sabers, as the bigger companies do.

But at least, they are both there providing us with that great thing called choice. some will say thats why capitalism works, others will say thats why it sucks!

on another note, germany.. i woudl advise that you do something about your pictures as they are very easy to be stolen on the internet and used by someone else.
